it was always you

REMI

the bastion

Darling, you never could scare me
Set me ablaze like you do

At the mention of pitching a tent, Remi’s thoughts immediately veer in an entirely different direction, and he has to bite at the inside of his cheek to keep the boyish chuckle from escaping too loudly, his eyes flicking with unmistakable mischief before he realises what Ronin actually means. He nods then, amusement lingering, his thumb brushing idly along Ronin’s wrist. "King’s End is one of the few places we have never really stayed in before," he muses aloud, gaze drifting briefly over the meadow as if seeing it anew. A small shrug follows, easy and thoughtful. "I imagine we could settle out here well enough for a few…" The words taper off as a frown creases his brow, his attention snapping back to Ronin. "How long do you think it will take?"

Any further thought is swiftly derailed as Ronin closes the distance between them, lips finding his with familiar certainty and hands already roaming, and Remi feels a warm, happy flush bloom low in his belly, tightening there with unmistakable arousal. He laughs softly against Ronin’s mouth, breath hitching just enough to betray him, and slips one hand beneath his husband’s shirt to press firmly at his lower back, teasing and inviting all at once. "I am fairly certain," he murmurs with boyish amusement, "that the first part of that sentence was entirely unnecessary," before he tilts his head and kisses Ronin again, deeper this time.

I'd walk over coals in my bare feet
If that gets me closer to you
